I made a joke out of the miss-pronunciation of Hospice "horse ****" it was nothing to do with Hospices in any way shape or form or the people in them, just the name.. bull**** No, horse pss. Around these parts, it is common for people to pronounce horse as "hoss" or, dropping the H, 'oss. This is exactly why my children found the word hospice funny... when they didn't have a clue what one is. I'll give you a few pointers... Hoss: Large four legged creature, often raced for money. Dee: Cease to live. eg. "When he jumped out, I nearly deed of shock" Bod: Feathered creature with wings. eg. "some of my bods deed of flu" Corsey: Pavement. Wickend: Saturday and Sunday. It is known for people to purposely use such pronunciations, either as part of their identity or to take the mickey out of people from different parts of the region. I just think the dead and dying deserve a bit of respect instead of being used as the butt of a sick joke He never mentioned the sick or dying, neither did he mention employees, specific organizations or specific people. This, along with the reference to liquid measure, should have made it obvious that it was a play on words. Peter. |

The mistake the FCC made was dropping the code requirment down to 5 wpm.
Lots of nivices squeeked under the wire. On Tue, 25 Oct 2005, The Magnum wrote: Yet another reason I will never obtain a ham ticket. Good news for ham radio! Yep, there will be no one left on Ham soon after all the old farts have died... You seem to think that your little piece of paper raises your IQ. Yet with you cber IQ you couldn't pass the test even though the answers to the questions are available. Try taking an IQ test and i bet theres hardly any difference between you and most people on CB. The only test you would outshine most CBers would be radio related... |

Wouldnt you rather just talk to people? I know all about the arguements about it getting through when all else fails but is it really life and death?? If i cant get through on the radio I use a Phone or the Internet. After all its just a hobby. Besides, doesnt all that dot dot dot.. dash dash dash give you a headache after a while?? Dont get me wrong, im not having a go at Amateurs im just asking the question.. why is it so important? Regards, Graham |

Lots of nivices squeeked under the wire. the mistake every authority has made is.... when you cheapen a licence , you get lower standards of behaviour being displayed by the licensees. when those who have licences did very little to get that licence they will treat that licence with very little respect. when those licensees are governed by rules/regulations then their behaviour may well become the subject of complaints. complaints must be investigated. this costs money. end result.... lowering the 'cost of administration' allows cb'ers onto amateur bands. cb'ers on amateur bands will cause problems. problems cause complaints. complaints cause investigations. investigations cost money. money that was hoped to have been saved in the first place !! and a lot of this behaviour can be put down to ONE THING. (even the interview with an rsgb president on the arrl website shows this) the plan to get rid of compulsory morse testing for hf access. |
